Week 10 Term 3 2023

 Homework

  • Act 4A, p.56 Properties of Waves
  • Act 5A, p.73-74 Standing Waves
  • Act 5B, p.79-80 Music
  • Ex 3D, p.75-79, Standing Waves and Music

  • Act 6A, p.85-86 The Doppler Effect

  • Longitudinal Waves

    Particle displacement in the medium is parallel to the direction of wave propagation e.g. sound waves, primary earthquake waves

    Transverse Waves
    Particle displacement in the medium is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation e.g. light and other electromagnetic waves, secondary earthquake waves

    Frequency - Period


    Sound Waves
    Superposition of Waves

    Waves travel through each other and the total amplitude at any moment is equal to the sum of amplitudes of the individual waves.


    Standing Waves
    In musical instruments - when a reflected wave travels back through itself causing fixed points of Nodes (Deconstructive Interference) and Antinodes (Constructive Interference) due to the fractional relationship between the wavelength (𝜆) of the wave and the length (L) of the resonating chamber
